The Siux Electra Pro ST3 is a hybrid-shaped racket that Siux developed with Franco Stupaczuk. It pairs 15K Textreme carbon faces with an EVA Hard core, which gives it a medium-hard touch, and the balance sits toward the head at around 270 mm. A dampening system takes some of the sting out of that firm build. At €280 to €295 it is a premium racket for players who want power and precision from the same frame.

How it plays..

Our take: Lars's summary

The Electra Pro ST3 feels solid and gives clear feedback on every shot. Its head-heavy balance adds power without taking away control, and the medium sweet spot is reasonably forgiving for a racket at this level. Players who prefer a softer, more forgiving feel should note that the medium-hard touch and the weight in the head ask for sound technique, and the racket gives most back on fast swings.

Defense

Defense

The EVA Hard core and carbon frame keep the racket stable when you defend, with little twisting on off-center hits. Lobs go deep and under control, and the dampening system keeps it comfortable through long defensive rallies. For a head-heavy racket it reacts quickly when you are pressed for time.

Attack

Offense

This is where the racket is strongest. The hybrid shape and head-heavy balance produce heavy smashes, while aggressive drives stay accurate. It responds best to fast swing speeds, so good technique gets the most out of it. The rough surface helps you put spin on attacking shots from any position.

Netplay

Net play

At the net the maneuverability comes through. Quick volleys and reflex shots feel controlled, and the medium-hard touch gives clear feedback on touch shots. Defensive blocks and aggressive put-aways both work well, while the dampening keeps fast exchanges comfortable.

Our Advice for New Players

For beginners

Not a good first racket. The medium-hard touch and head-heavy balance need a sound technical base, and €280 to €295 is a lot to spend while you are still learning. Start with a softer, more forgiving entry-level racket and look at the Electra Pro ST3 once your technique is in place.

Our Advice for Intermediate Players

For intermediates

Intermediates with solid fundamentals can make it work if they are ready to invest. Expect an adjustment period to the firm touch and the weight in the head. Once you have adapted, it rewards clean technique on both power and control shots.

Competitive level

For advanced players

Advanced players get the most from it. It handles the pace of competitive, high-level play and adapts to different match situations. Players who like a medium-hard touch and want real power without giving up control will feel at home with it.
